I participated in a mangrove kayak tour and a visit to Yubu Island!
The mangroves were surrounded by trees on both sides, making the waterways narrow, which gave a thrilling sense of adventure and was really enjoyable.
I got stuck in the mangroves a few times, but our guide, Rui, kindly helped me out and provided just the right amount of advice.
The visit to Yubu Island was great because we got to ride water buffalo to the island, which is an experience you don't usually get.
I had a fun day overall. Thank you!
マングローブのカヤックツアーと由布島観光に参加しました!
マングローブは左右が木に囲まれて水路が狭く、冒険をしている感じでスリルがあり楽しめました。
何度かマングローブに引っ掛かって行き詰まりましたが、担当ガイドのるいさんに親切に助けていただき、また適度なアドバイスで助かりました。
由布島観光は、水牛に乗って離島に行けて、普段は体験できないので良かったです。
1日楽しく過ごせました。ありがとうございました!
マングローブのカヤックツアーは、スマホの防水ケースがあるとカヤックにスマホを持ち込めるので、防水ケース持参がオススメです。
Thank you for participating in the tour with Iriomote Island ADVENTURE PiPi!
There were a few little mishaps during the kayaking, but I'm glad you enjoyed the adventurous spirit.
I'm also happy that you were able to fully enjoy the unique experiences that Iriomote has to offer, including Yubu Island.
You can enjoy different scenery and atmospheres with each season, so please come visit us again!

I participated in a day trip tour that allowed me to fully enjoy Iriomote, Yufu, and Taketomi Islands. The tour included a mangrove cruise in Iriomote, a ride on a water buffalo cart from Iriomote to Yufu, and both a water buffalo cart and rental bicycles on Taketomi Island.
First of all, arranging this on your own would likely be impossible. Bus transportation is essential on the islands, and the logistics can be quite complicated and impractical, so joining a tour is the best option.
In Iriomote and Yufu, there are set routes and schedules, so you don’t need to plan everything in advance. Yufu is a small island, so if you follow the designated route, you can see all the attractions.
On Taketomi Island, there is free time for cycling, and being able to explore the island thoroughly during this time is crucial. The island has few large buildings and many similar streets, so it can be easy to get lost if it's your first visit. Additionally, restaurants and tourist spots are scattered around, so it's better to do some research beforehand. However, since you can get around by rental bicycle, you can reach the faraway beaches without taking too much time. Be mindful of the return time for the rental bicycles and the ferry departure time to Ishigaki, as both are fixed, so make sure not to be late.
私は西表・由布・竹富島を日帰りで満喫できるツアーに参加しました。西表ではマングローブ遊覧、西表~由布までの水牛車に乗り、竹富島では水牛車とレンタサイクルが楽しめるフルパッケージのツアーです。
まず、個人手配することはおそらく不可能です。島内ではバス移動が必須ですし、様々に煩雑で手間がかかりすぎて現実的ではありませんので、ツアー参加一択です。
西表、由布では決まったルート、予定が組まれているので、そこまで事前に計画を立てておかなくてもよいかと思います。由布は小さい島なので、順路に従って移動すれば島内すべてを観光できます。
竹富島ではレンタサイクルでの自由時間が設けられており、ここでの観光をしっかり回れるかどうかが重要です。まず島内は大きな建物が少なく、似たような通りばかりなので、初めてでは迷います。また食事処や観光名所もそれぞれに散らばっているので、事前に調べていったほうが良いです。ただ、レンタサイクルでの移動なので、遠方の海岸までもそこまで時間がかからずに到着できます。レンタサイクルの返却時間、石垣行のフェリー発車時間はそれぞれ決まっていますので、遅れないように注意しましょう。
You won't be disappointed if you join this tour. Although it takes time from early morning until evening, you can enjoy all of Iriomote, Yufu, and Taketomi.
このツアーに参加すれば間違いありません。早朝から夕方まで時間はかかるものの、西表、由布、竹富をすべて楽しむことができます。

I always book options through Veltra, and while there were several tour companies on-site, the content seemed to be the same. In that case, it's definitely reassuring to book with the trusted Veltra.
This tour felt like time stood still. Being away from the hustle and bustle of the city really refreshes the mind. The meals were satisfying as well. The grandmother at the ice cream shop was very kind and gave me star sand. I would love to go back and relax again someday.
いつもベルトラさんでオプションを申し込みますが、現地でもいくつかのツアー会社がありましたが、中身は同じようです。ならばやはり信頼のベルトラさんで予約が安心ですね。
このツアーは、時間が止まったような感覚でした。現地の様子は都会の喧騒からはなれてね心がリフレッシュします。食事も満足。アイスクリーム屋のおばあがとても親切で、星の砂をいただきました。いつか、またのんびりしに行きたいです。

I was able to go to Barasu Island, which I had wanted to visit for a long time, and I was deeply moved! Initially, the plan was to land by boat, but I received a call the day before saying that due to the tides, we couldn't land by boat and had to choose between snorkeling to get there or giving up on Barasu Island and going to Yufu Island instead (there was originally a note about the possibility of changing the tour).
Since I have children and had never been to a place where I couldn't touch the bottom, I was anxious about snorkeling, but our guide, Toshi, kindly explained everything over the phone, which I really appreciated. In the end, I was glad I chose snorkeling. I got to see a lot of fish in the beautiful sea, and I was able to go to Barasu Island as well.
The mangrove canoeing was also fun, as we could all ride together as a family of five, and it felt like an adventure. I would like to join Toshi's tour again next time!
ずっと行きたかったバラス島に行くことができ、感動しました!
当初は船で上陸するプランでしたが、前日に電話があり潮の関係で船では上陸できず途中からシュノーケリングで向かうか、バラス島は諦めて由布島に行くか選んでくださいとのことでした(ツアー変更の可能性については元々記載がありました)
子供もおり、足がつかない所に行ったことがなかった為シュノーケリングに不安がありましたがガイドのトッシーが電話で丁寧に説明してくださりありがたかったです。結果、シュノーケリングを選んで良かったです。綺麗な海で魚をたくさん見られたし、バラス島にも行くことができました。
マングローブカヌーも、夫婦と子供3人乗りができ、冒険のようで楽しかったです。
次また行く際にもトッシーのツアーで参加したいと思います!

It was better than I expected. The ferry from Ishigaki Island was not fully booked, so I could sit comfortably. The mangrove boat tour, water buffalo cart, and the shuttle bus in between were all accompanied by guides who provided interesting commentary, making the journey enjoyable. The water buffalo cart, in particular, travels between Yubu Island, enhancing the experience with a lot of local charm. The lunch was also satisfactory in both quantity and quality.
予想より良かったです。
石垣島からの行き帰りの船は満席にならずゆったり座れる。
マングローブ遊覧船、水牛車、その間の移動バスなど各々の添乗員さんがしっかりお話ししてくれるので道中飽きない。
特に水牛車は三線を引き立つ由布島を往来するので情緒たっぷり。
お昼ご飯もそれなりな量と質で満足。
I chose to explore Taketomi Island on foot. There is a bus that goes to the sandy beach on the opposite side, so you can use that, and on the way back, you can check out the shops on the island before
竹富島は徒歩での自由行動を選びました。
反対側の砂浜まではバスがあるのでそれを利用しつつ、帰りは島内の商店などを見つつ港まで戻れます。
ですが、徒歩は思ったより歩くのでしっかりした靴がいいです。

It felt like a university club atmosphere (they were trying to liven things up), but I would have preferred to enjoy nature in a more relaxed setting. Being quiet might increase the chances of encountering the Iriomote cat. I could have enjoyed the sounds of owls and other wild birds more as well. It might depend on the guide.
大学のサークルみたいなノリで(盛り上げようとしてくれたのでしょうが)、もっと落ち着いた雰囲気の中で自然鑑賞したかったです。静かにしている方が、イリオモテヤマネコなどに遭遇できる可能性もあがるのでは。フクロウなど野鳥の声ももっと楽しめたはず。ガイドの方によるのかもしれません。

While heading to Iriomote Island, I was sitting in a seat on the ocean side at the back of the boat, enjoying the view of the sea, when a sudden wave soaked me completely. However, I was healed by the beautiful sea, the pleasant breeze, and the surrounding islands.
Once we arrived at Iriomote Island, we quickly used the restroom, and the mangrove tour began. The boatman was very skilled at storytelling, making it a lot of fun. I've heard that the atmosphere changes between high and low tide, so I definitely want to see it at a different time.
After the mangrove tour, we headed to the water buffalo cart boarding area near Yubu Island by tourist bus, and the bus driver's stories were also entertaining. During the journey to Yubu Island, the water buffalo cart driver shared trivia and played the sanshin, making it quite varied. The water buffalo walked through the water without a care, even when the tide was high. The water buffalo resting on the island were also very cute. There seemed to be quite a bit of time for exploration, which passed quickly as we took photos with the water buffalo and looked at souvenirs. Next time I come, I plan to decide on the points to stop at in advance to make the most of my time.
On the day we visited, a tsunami warning was issued, and after leaving Yubu Island, we ended up going to the island's evacuation center, which turned out to be a valuable experience (if things had gone as planned, we wouldn't have stopped at the exchange center, and it was fun with the atmosphere reminiscent of an old-fashioned nature house for boys). The subsequent trip to Taketomi Island was canceled, and we returned to Ishigaki Port, but the staff's response was quick and very reassuring. Despite the natural disaster, we received a partial refund the next day, and I think the service was just as excellent as the tour itself. I would love to use this service again next time!
# As a side note, it seems that while writing this experience, if a long time passes, it results in a submission error and everything disappears (the above is my feedback written again). I recommend that anyone writing their experiences copy it to a notepad or something first before posting.
西表島に向かう際、客室の外(船の後方)、海側の座席で海を眺めていたら急な波でびしょぬれになってしまいました。しかし綺麗な海や心地よい風そして周りの島々に癒されました。
西表島に着いたらトイレを済ませてすぐにマングローブ遊覧がはじまります。船頭さんの話がうまくてとても楽しめます。満潮と干潮で雰囲気も異なるそうなので、別のタイミングでもぜひ見てみたいところです。
マングローブ遊覧が終わると油布島近くの水牛車乗り場まで観光バスで向かいますが、バスの運転手さんの話がこれまた面白いです。油布島までの道中は、水牛車のお兄さんによって雑学を披露してくれたり、三線を弾いてくれたり様々です。水牛たちは潮が満ちていても何のそのでじゃぶじゃぶ歩いてくれます。島で休んでいる水牛たちもとてもキュートでした。散策時間が結構あるようですぐに過ぎてしまうので(水牛と写真を撮ったりお土産をみたりで)、次回来るときは立ち寄るポイントをあらかじめ決めておいて効率よくまわろうと思います。
私たちが訪れた日、ちょうど津波注意報が発表され、油布島を出たあと島の避難所に行くことになってしまったのですがそれはそれで貴重な経験でした(予定通りだと交流センターに立ち寄ることはありませんし、昔ながらの少年自然の家のような雰囲気で楽しかったです)。
その後の竹富島は中止になって石垣港へ戻ることになりましたが、スタッフの方々の対応も素早くとても安心できました。
自然災害にもかかわらず、翌日一部返金のお知らせをいただきツアーの内容と同じくらいサービスも最高だと思います。
次回もまた利用させていただきたいです!!

Overall, it was enjoyable, but I thought sitting on the right side during the mangrove cruise offered relatively more sights to see. The driver's commentary during the bus ride was entertaining. Unfortunately, the lunch was disappointing. There was hardly anything suitable for children, and since it was geared towards adults, I think it would be better if there were at least a children's menu or the option to choose between two set meals. Just considering the disappointment of this lunch, I don't think I would participate in the same tour again.
終始楽しめますが、マングローブクルーズは右側に座ったほうが比較的見どころが多いなと思いました。
バス移動の運転手さんのトークが面白かったです。
ランチは残念な感じでした。子どもが食べられそうなものがほとんどなく、大人向け共通なので、せめて子どもメニューを選べるとか、定食を2つから選べるといいかなと思います。このランチの残念さだけを考えても、次は同じツアー参加はしないなと思います。

The tour included everything, such as the boarding fee, lunch, and the water buffalo cart, so it was very convenient. I was able to spend my time leisurely. The lunch was delicious as well.
On Taketomi Island, I wanted to do the water buffalo cart and rental bicycle plan, but it was sold out, so I opted for the free walk plan instead. I was able to rent a bicycle from another rental shop, but the timing of the boat's departure and the bicycle rental's shuttle service didn't match, so I walked to the port for about 15 minutes on the way back.
It was a good experience, but I wouldn't recommend the free walk for families with children. It was tough to walk while carrying them. (laughs)
乗船料、お昼代、水牛車などの代金など全て込みのツアーだったので、とても楽ちんでした。時間的にもゆったりと過ごせました。昼食も美味しかったです。
竹富島では水牛車とレンタサイクルのプランが良かったのですが売り切れだったので、フリーウォークのプランにしました。他のレンタサイクルさんで自転車を借りることができましたが、船の出航時間とレンタサイクルの送迎の時間が合わず、帰りは徒歩15分くらいで港まで行きました。
良い体験でしたが、お子様連れはフリーウォークはおすすめしません。抱っこで歩くのは辛かったです。笑

I booked the tour because the reviews were good and our group couldn't drive on Ishigaki Island. The pick-up service to the hotel was very helpful, and everyone on the tour was kind.
I had no idea about Yubu Island, but I added it to the tour because it seemed like we could ride water buffalo. As a result, it became a very memorable experience. The lunch was also delicious!
We stayed on Taketomi Island for about 2.5 hours. It was great that we could rent bicycles on the day.
It wasn't too busy, and we were able to enjoy it leisurely. Thank you!
口コミも良かったのと、車が運転できないグループでの石垣島だったので、ツアーを予約しました。ホテルまでの送迎付きなのでとても助かりましたし、ツアーの方々は全員親切でした。
由布島は全く知らなかったのですがこちらのツアーで水牛に乗れそうだったので付けてみました。結果、とても思い出に残りました。お昼ご飯もおいしかったです!
竹富島も2.5時間ほど滞在しました。チャリも当日レンタルで借りれたので良かったです。
忙しすぎず、のんびり楽しめました。ありがとうございました!
It's hot and the sunlight is intense, so make sure to take precautions. If you play in Taketomi Island from 2 PM to 4 PM and arrange for the shuttle to the hotel at 5:20 PM, you'll have about an hour
暑いのと日差しがやばいので、対策しっかりしてください。竹富島を14〜16時で遊んで、ホテルまでの送迎を17:20の便にしてもらうと1時間ほど余裕ができるので、ユーグレナモールで買い物などもできます。

I was glad to finally see the mangroves. The tour with the team was not only about the mangroves but also included a lot of interesting trivia, which made it even more enjoyable.
念願のマングローブを見れてよかったです
チーム関ではマングローブツアーだけでなく多くの雑学を教えてもらいながらのツアーだったのでより楽しかったです。
Thank you for participating in the mangrove tour today.
We were blessed with great weather and enjoyed canoeing under a beautiful blue sky! The return trip was a bit challenging due to the fast current, but paddling the canoe while cutting through the wind is part of the thrill. I would be happy if you could look back at the photos and remember the time spent here.
Let's go on another adventure when you visit Iriomote Island again!

本日はマングローブツアーにご参加いただきありがとうございました。
天気にも恵まれ気持ちよい青空の下でカヌーを楽しめました!帰りは潮の流れも早く少し大変でしたが風を切りながらカヌーを漕ぐ、これも醍醐味です。また写真を見返しながらここで過ごした時間を思い出していただけたら嬉しいです。
また西表島にお越しの際は冒険に出掛けましょう!

I signed up for this tour because I wanted to make the most of my limited time efficiently. Iriomote Island is rich in nature, and the water buffalo walk leisurely, which was very soothing for me, as I usually live a busy life. The shaved ice I had on Taketomi Island was fluffy and delicious.
限られて時間の中で効率よく回りたかったので、こちらのツアーに申し込みました。西表島は自然が豊かで、水牛はゆったり歩き、普段忙しない時間の中で生活しているので、とても癒されました。竹富島で食べたかき氷はフワフワで美味しかったです。
I walked around Taketomi Island, but I really don't recommend it. I think it's better to get around by bicycle or bus. There is no shade at all, so walking for a long time in the blazing sun is tough.
竹富島は歩いて回ったのですが、本当にお勧めしません。自転車やバスでの移動がいいと思います。日陰が全然ないので、炎天下の中、長い時間歩くのはしんどいです。個人的に港から集落までが限界でした。

I participated alone in July.
First, we took a speedboat to Iriomote Island, and the tour started with a mangrove tour in the Nakama River. The speedboat ride included detailed explanations, and during the mangrove tour, we were able to handle real shells that are found in the river. Along the way to Yubu Island, we received various guides and had a great time throughout.
Yubu Island is a small island, but the lunch was very delicious, and the tropical plants were beautifully maintained in this lovely place. I thought it might smell like cattle, but it didn't at all. We also had various conversations and sang songs during the water buffalo cart ride.
After that, we went to Taketomi Island. Unfortunately, it was cloudy, but we comfortably rode bicycles around the main spots.
I don't think I could have arranged such a perfect schedule on my own, so I believe this is the best tour.
Thank you very much.
7月に1人で参加させて頂きました。
最初にスピードボートで西表島島に行き、仲間川のマングローブツアーから始まりました。スピードボートから全て詳しい説明付きで、マングローブツアーでは川で獲れる本物の貝などを実際に回してくださりました。
由布島への道中も色々なガイドをしていだだけ、終始楽しく過ごせました。
由布島は小さな島ですが、お弁当がとても美味しいく南国の植物がとても綺麗に手入れされた美しい場所でした。
牛臭いかな?と思っていましたが、全くでした。
水牛車でも色々なお話をして歌も歌って頂けました。
その後、竹富島に行きました。あいにくの雲でしたが、自転車で快適に主要な場所を周りました。
自分ではこんなにベストなスケジュールで行けないので、最高のツアーだと思います。
ありがとうございました。
The speedboat to Iriomote Island takes about 45 minutes and can be quite bumpy, so it might be a bit challenging for those who are prone to seasickness. Also, you might not have enough time to walk ar
西表島へのスピードボートは45分結構揺れ続けるので、船酔いする方はちょっと大変かも知れません。

A wonderful summer vacation visiting the three islands of Iriomote Island, Yufu Island, and Taketomi Island, swaying in a water buffalo cart while being soothed by the sounds of the sanshin, and seeing coral reefs and colorful fish from a glass-bottom boat.
西表島、由布島、竹富島の3島巡り、水牛車に揺られ癒される三線の調べ、グラスボートから見えたサンゴ礁とカラフルな魚たち、楽しい夏休みでした。
It can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

I was moved by the Milky Way, which I saw for the first time. The starry sky was magnificent, and everything, including the staff's explanations, was great. I was worried about my 80-year-old mother needing a restroom, but there were restroom breaks along the way, so we could participate with peace of mind. Thank you very much.
初めて見る天の川に感動しました。
満天の星空、スタッフさんの説明何もかも良かったです。80歳の母親も一緒だったのでトイレが心配でしたが、道中にトイレ休憩もあり安心して参加できました。
ありがとうございました。
Since it will be past 1:23 when we return to the hotel, the little ones might get sleepy.
ホテルに戻るのが123時過ぎるので、小さいお子さんには、眠くなるかも

For those who do not participate in activities like snorkeling, I recommend the glass-bottom boat tour in Taketomi Island. However, the water buffalo cart tours are crowded and have very long wait times, which leaves almost no time for free exploration of Taketomi Island afterward. Therefore, I suggest opting for cycling instead of the water buffalo cart course.
シュノーケリング等をやらない方には竹富島グラスボートお勧めですが、水牛車観光は混雑していてとても待ち時間が長い為、その後の竹富島フリー観光時間がほぼ無くなるので水牛車コースではなくサイクリングをお勧めします。
You might want to have some motion sickness medication.
酔い止めはあった方がいいかも

This is my first time in Ishigaki Island. This time, since I didn't have much time, I joined this tour to efficiently visit the surrounding islands. Whether boarding the boat or the bus, there was very little waiting time, and everything went smoothly. Fortunately, the waves weren't high, and I didn't experience the seasickness I was worried about, but I recommend that those who are prone to motion sickness bring some medication.
石垣島は初めて。今回は、あまり時間がなかったこともあり、離島を効率よく回るのに、このツアーに参加しました。
船に乗るにも、バスに乗るにも、とにかく待ち時間が少なく、スムーズ。
運良く、波も高くなくて、心配していた船酔いもありませんでしたが、酔いやすい人は酔い止め持参をオススメします。
On Taketomi Island, the path from the port to the town center is a bit of a long slope. In summer, there isn't much shade on the road, so please be careful of heatstroke. We took a course with a water

The full day experience is quite interesting, though most of the cases are only self-guided and if you are not Japanese, there is limited information learned since most of the guided (on the river boat and the bus) are conducted in Japanese. The whole trip is packed with different experiences including a boat trip, water buffalo truck, authentic little towns, beautiful beaches, etc., which were quite satisfactory. The bento for lunch was well prepared as well. Fortunately, I was in a showroom about Taketomi Island with many great displays of local folk items, culture, and a short movie theatre with air conditioning that allowed me to spend the time during the rain learning many things about Taketomi culture. Also, there is English and Chinese explanation as well.

The guided device for foreigners had very limited information compared with the length of what the guides said. My guided device seems malfuntioned as it is not working probably in the middle of the trip, which really lessened the information I could learn.
